A diffraction grating is similar to a prism--it breaks light up into its component wavelengths, producing a rainbow. So if you want to see a rainbow, but the weather isn't cooperating, you can look through the diffraction grating, or use it to project light onto a surface. The advantage of a diffraction grating is the size. It's the same size as a photographic slide, so you can keep it in your pocket.
It's a fun little toy to play with, and you and your kids can do a lot of interesting scientific experiments, such as the ones on this website. But there's another reason why you want one!
When I was a kid, I discovered in the school library a book entitled UFOs and IFOs: A Factual Report on Flying Saucers, by Gardner Soule. As the title suggests, it was a scholarly (for elementary school kids) look at the UFO phenomenon. And I remember that the author suggested that you carry some things with you at all times, just in case you ever see a UFO. I believe he recommended a pen and paper to jot down notes and make a sketch. And I remember that a small compass would come in handy to see if the UFO had any magnetic effects.
Maybe I carried around a compass, but I could never find the other piece of equipment he recommended: A diffraction grating. If you ever see a UFO, you should look at it through a diffraction grating. By noting which colors are present, you will allow scientists to figure out what materials the UFO is made out of, through the process of atomic spectroscopy. With your data, scientists will be able to figure out if the UFO is made of the element unobtainium, found only on the planet Zontar, or if it's actually just aluminum from an airplane door that popped out.
A few months ago, most people didn't know that they would need eclipse glasses, and they waited until it was too late. Well, there might be a flood of UFO reports. People will remember Gardner Soule's advice, and start looking for diffraction gratings. But they'll be out of stock. Just like you were prepared and ordered your eclipse glasses early, act now to get your diffraction grating, for only $3.99, with free shipping. Just click the "buy now" button below.
